Before Calling Service
A list of common symptoms is presented as follows. Before you call for service, perform
these simple checks. Some of these symptoms can be readily corrected. Note: Please
become familiar with the commercial features as described in TV Installation / Setup,
because the effects of several of these features, if they are not thoroughly understood,
might appear as faulty operation.
Symptom Possible Corrective Action
TV does not respond to commands (volume,
channel, power), or cannot be turned on if it is off,
or cannot be turned off if it is on.
Check commercial TV setup (TV installation /
setup) menu settings, including power forced on,
front keypad lockout, channel ring, volume
maximum features.
TV turns off by itself
• TV automatically turns off after when no RF
signal is present.
• Check Energy Saving Programmability setting
(see ESP) in TV installation / setup.
No power
Verify that the TV’s AC power cord is plugged into
the mains socket. If there is still no power,
disconnect plug. Wait for 60 seconds and re-insert
plug. Switch on the TV again.
No picture
• Check antenna connection at rear of the TV.
• Possible TV station problem. Try another
channel.
Picture ok, no sound.
• Try increasing the volume.
• Check that the sound is not muted. If it is
muted, press the Mute button on the remote
control to restore sound.
• Check the MAX VOLUME settings in the
setup menu
Sound ok, but poor color or no picture Check picture adjustments (brightness, contrast,
color, tint).
Snowy / noisy picture
• Check antenna, cable, and/or set-top box
connections and antenna / cable.
• Possible electrical interference from appliances
or other sources.
Double images / “ghost” images Check antenna, cable and/or set-top box.
Television does not respond to remote control.
• Check batteries.
• Aim remote control handset directly at remote
control sensor lens on the TV.
Channel Change to digital channels is slow The first time a digital channel is tuned, the tuning
time will be slow as information embedded in the
signal is processed. After that digital channel
tuning will be faster.
Note: These televisions are shipped in commercial mode with the processing of PSIP Virtual Channel
Table (VCT) disabled. To enable PSIP VCT processing, see the Hotel Mode Menu section.

between on and standby. To completely
remove AC mains power, you must unplug
the AC mains plug.
Switching on the Set
• Press the power button on the TV’s front
panel or on the remote control to switch on
the set.

** ATSC digital terrestrial broadcast channels send information along with the television signal that is
known as PSIP information. PSIP information contains data such as the channel numbers that will
normally be seen by the viewer of the channel. These channels are virtual channels meaning the channel
numbers displayed may not represent the channel numbers where the signals are physically located. In
normal viewing of ATSC signals by consumers, these virtual channels are used when tuning. However, in
some commercial applications there is a desire not to use virtual channels and instead use the physical
channel numbers when tuning.
The Hotel Mode Menu allows the selection of “PSIP” to either Yes or No. Setting PSIP to Yes means that
the PSIP Virtual Channel Tables will be processed and used when tuning digital signals. Setting PSIP to
No means PSIP Virtual Channel Tables will not be processed and digital channels will be tuned using the
RF channel location and MPEG program number as defined in PAT/PMT.

CHANNEL INSTALL (>)
The CHANNEL INSTALL menu allows the user to configure the channels that can be
accessed. When installing the channels, different inputs can be mapped to TV channels to
allow seamless integration into the channel map. The two sections below explain how to
install analog channels and AV inputs, and how to install digital channels.
Installing Analog channels
When selected, CHANNEL INSTALL menu appears as follows. Configure the inputs
and channels as described.

• CHANNEL:
Select the channel you wish to configure.
• SOURCE:
Select the input source that you wish to associate with the specified CHANNEL. This
feature enables you to “map” (re-assign) a numeric channel number to a video input,
rather than to its normal RF TV channel (i.e. ANALOG). In other words, TV channel
2 could be used to select the AV 1 video input instead of RF (ANALOG) channel 2.
Special instructions for mapping digital channels are included below.
• RING:
Specify whether the current channel or input is to be SAVED to or DELETED from
the channel ring (i.e., list of channels available for selection by means of a standard
guest remote control).
• LABEL:
Input a maximum of 8 characters for the channel’s label. Cursor to the right to start
the first character. Cursor left or right to navigate between character positions within
the label field. Cursor up or down to select characters from the list: A to Z, 0 to 9, -, .,
/, :, =, ?, ;, <, >, @ or space. To edit, re-input the character at its position. To exit,
press “M” to navigate out of the label editing field.
• AUTO INSTALL TV:
When AUTO INSTALL TV is selected, the TV performs an automatic search for the
presence of viable RF analog signals at its tuner input. Channels 1 through 125 will
be checked. When a viable signal is detected on a given channel, that channel is
added to the channel ring. Any command from a remote control terminates the AUTO
PROGRAM session.

If STANDARD, the channel at power-on will be that to which the TV was tuned at
last power-down. If specified (e.g., 2, AV1, etc.), then that will always be the channel
/ input at power-on, until SWITCH ON CHANNEL is changed.
• SWITCH ON VOLUME: (STANDARD / 0 - 99)
Specify the volume setting that takes effect when the TV is powered on.
If STANDARD, the volume at power-on will be the volume at which the TV was

VOLUME is changed.
• POWER ON: (STANDBY / FORCED ON)
STANDBY: The TV will be in standby mode when AC mains power is first
applied after having been disconnected.
FORCED ON: The TV will turn ON whenever AC mains power is applied. This
feature allows the TV’s power status to be controlled, for example, from an AC mains
breaker. In addition, the set cannot be put into standby with a guest remote or using
the front panel power key.
• VOLUME INDICATOR: (NO / YES)
When VOLUME INDICATOR is set to YES, an OSD graphic appears that provides
visual verification (e.g. “VOLUME 15”) during volume adjustment, by means of
either the remote control, or the front panel (if it is not locked out).
• CHANNEL DISPLAY: (NONE / NUMBER / LABEL / ALL)
Specifies which of the respective channel properties are displayed by the TV’s OSD
when a channel or input is first selected.
• 3 DIGIT ENTRY: (NO / YES)
o YES: The TV, upon receiving a remote control digit command, “expects” to
receive up to two more successive remote control digit commands (e.g. 123,
012, etc.) before tuning the intended channel. The television will display, in
2005 HF Series User’s Manual 112505.0959

the upper left-hand corner of the screen, each digit as it is received, followed
by a hyphen ‘-’, indicating that the TV is “waiting” for the next digit (see
Note).
o NO: The TV, upon receiving a remote control digit command, “expects” to
receive one more successive remote control digit command before tuning the
intended channel (see Note).
Note: Successive digit commands must occur within two seconds, or the TV will
interpret the previously received digit(s) as constituting the intended channel and tune
accordingly.
• SWITCH ON PIC FMT: (AUTO / 4:3 / ZOOM 14:9 / ZOOM 16:9 /
SUBTITLE ZOOM / WIDESCREEN / SUPERZOOM)
Set the default screen format of the television at Power On.
The pictures you receive may be transmitted in 16:9 format (wide screen) or 4:3
format (conventional screen). 16:9 pictures sometimes have a black band at the top
and bottom of the screen (letterbox format). This function allows you to optimize the
picture display on screen.
